At F5, we strive to bring a better digital world to life. Our teams empower organizations across the globe to create, secure, and run applications that enhance how we experience our evolving digital world. We are passionate about cybersecurity, from protecting consumers from fraud to enabling companies to focus on innovation.

Everything we do centers around people. That means we obsess over how to make the lives of our customers, and their customers, better. And it means we prioritize a diverse F5 community where each individual can thrive.

Through our Professional Services Federal/Government Solutions team, you will provide contracted engineering for which we bill at an hourly rate. Consulting engagements can be long-term events measured in months or short-term events measured in days. You are called upon to assist Federal customers and partners in deploying/integrating customer solutions with our products. While this opportunity may involve some project management and scoping, it requires customer expectation management and its technical fulfillment.

The primary focus will be toward F5 products and their integration with customer networks and other equipment. This position is not part of our technical support services and is not a corporate escalation point for customer issues. Our Consultants often interface with our Sales Account Executives, but do not report to any given Account Executive. Incidental mentorship may result from working with other F5 employees, but it is not a performance metric.

Finally, you must hold a TS Clearance with Polygraph to perform in this position!

Skills, Attributes, and experience:

Excellent presentation, verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to successfully articulate and transfer complex ideas to a wide audience.
The ability to work well with all levels of customer employees and management, and to be self-motivated and flexible.
Technical sales of enterprise network solutions to corporate accounts a plus.

Qualifications

Must have an Active Top Secret Security Clearance with Polygraph as you will be engaging with Federal contracts
Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience, with a focus on architecture and design of network or systems infrastructure, performance and management
Experience in customer-facing positions as a professional services consultant or engineer, preferred.
In-depth knowledge of technologies including TCP/IP networking and services such as DNS.
Understanding of server operating environments, including a strong background in UNIX, and experiences with switches, routers and firewalls in intranet/Internet/extranet environments.
Ability to apply a thorough understanding of IP routing and TCP and UDP service provision in environments that are technically complex and also may be complex from an organizational perspective.
Strong understanding of the OSI networking model as well as protocols such as HTTP, SSL and other server concepts.
The ability to work both with and without direct supervision.
BS/BA degree or equivalent work experience.

It is also helpful if candidates have experience with

GateD, ZebOS, NameD, SSH daemons and clients, tcpdump, snoop, ethereal and other packet sniffing software or products.
Configuring or managing OSPF, BGP, static and dynamic routing with firewall technology for any organization.
Configuring services such as LDAP and RADIUS services, DNS domains, sub-domains and secondary name servers.
Personal or professional experience in programming in interpreted languages such as bourne shell, bash and korn shell.
Professional experience including coding for SOAP/XML communication or Common Object Request Broker Architectures

Physical Demands and Work Environment

Job may be performed on-site at a customer facility or data center, or in an office environment sitting at a desk or computer table.
When not on-site at customer location, the position may be remote or at nearest F5 office.
Duties require the ability to utilize a computer / laptop, communicate over the telephone, and read printed material.
Duties require the ability to travel up to 50% or greater via automobile and airplane and may require periodically outside normal working hours (evenings and weekends).

Background Screening

This role involves customer facing engagements and may be subject to additional background check requirements per customer requests. All screenings and results will be subject to applicable law and F5 policies and may be used to determine work assignment or further employment eligibility.
